We had a GREAT time at Equinox. This is a very special restaurant. The entire menu is fabulous. I love their ability to cover both delicious omnivore and exquisite plant based options. All food is impeccable. There is something for everyone - and I’ve noticed people of all ages and much diversity. The staff is warm and inviting and the atmosphere is “elevated cozy”. LOVE this place. congrats on the one year in the new space. Support this DC treasure!

Everything about our dinner here was 5-star! The food was delicious, the wine choice was outstanding, the service was attentive and helpful, and the ambiance was great. If you're a wine drinker, this is a fabulous restaurant to go to with an extensive list of wines from around the world. They also had a decent choice of cocktails. Everything from the appetizers to the main dishes and dessert was also delicious!

We like exploring tapas restaurants since we don’t have one near us at home. My only concern was not seeing any listing under the “chef’s selection “ pre fixe menu. We still ordered it and enjoyed most of it, but we didn’t know everything we were served and had no idea what was coming next.
